Highlights from this episode of American Catholic Radio include:
Saint of the Day
St. Teresa of Avila is another saint in our series of saintly writers of Christian spiritual classics. She is the first woman “doctor” of the Church—someone known for embodying both holiness and learning.
Living Faith
Paul Smith talks about Jimmy Heath, a man who overcame huge obstacles in his life, such as alcoholism and homelessness, to finally realize a peace in his death from liver failure this year. Video clip: Heath shares his personal story of spiritual death and rebirth.
Ask a Franciscan
Father Hilarion Kistner, O.F.M., responds to questions: Why did God test Abraham by commanding that he kill his only son? Is Daniel’s story called apocalyptic because it didn’t really happen?
Minute Meditation
This program’s Minute Meditation is “Smack in the Middle,” written and read by Ursuline Sister Bridget Haase from her book Well Said: Children’s Words of Wisdom.
Bible Break
Jesus’ cry, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” comes from Psalm 22. What was Jesus really saying when he uttered these words? Jesuit Father Daniel Harrington explains why they’re words of hope, not despair.
Exploring Our Faith
Father Tom Richstatter, O.F.M., completes our series on the rite of scrutinies. The final scrutiny centers on the story of the resurrection of Lazarus—highlighting Jesus as our resurrection and life.
